We paid £1.49 for ten cabbage plants about 6 weeks ago and have them in the poly-tunnel. Just as well as it has been so cold they would not have grown so well outside.
Not much heart, but will treat as a spring green and make a start on the row. Otherwise we will be over run with greens by the end of May.
I have just finished a narrow quilt to go on the Z-bed/put you up. I used a metre of fabric that was on sale at £3 p.metre and brought some cotton wadding. I liked the design as it was easy to quilt into squares. I found some old faux- velvet in dark blue to make a backing and some spare green for the edges. We have some spare single sheets and a blanket - so next time the extra single bed is needed for an adult or older grandchild I will not have to ask them to bring their own bedding. I was embarrassed to ask them last time - the family always seem to have so much stuff to bring each time they visit.
